Chapter 166: Taming Yuewu

……

“S, stop!” A trace of panic appeared in Leng Yuewu’s sharp eyes as she lowered her voice and scolded angrily, “What, what are you doing?”

“Leng Yuewu, you still want to ask me what I am doing?” Lei Qing, drunk and bold, glared and said, “I actually want to ask you what you are planning to do? What do you take me, Lei Qing, for? A gigolo in a brothel, to be played with however you want? Someone to come and have fun with whenever you feel like it? No, no, not even a gigolo. Every time you finish having fun, you pull up your skirt and run away, without even a few fake affectionate words.”

Lei Qing’s aggressive words made Leng Yuewu’s eyes falter, and she took two steps back, saying, “I, I came to find you this time not…”

“Regardless of whether it is or not, haven’t I treated you well?” Lei Qing was also seething with anger today, “Come to think of it, I am your savior. Yet you treat me like an enemy. Fine, you, the great Palace Master Leng, have thick arms and hard fists; I can’t beat you. Whatever you want to do to me, I can’t resist. But you don’t have to point a sword at me every time you come to see me, right? I have dignity too.”

“Hmph.” Leng Yuewu panicked a little as she withdrew her sword, staring at Lei Qing and saying, “Are you satisfied now? Tell me, what did you do to Shanshan? Why did you make her cry all the time?”

“Hey, hey, what kind of tone is that?” Lei Qing, relying on the alcohol today, was fearless and glared, saying, “Fine, I’ll tell you. I ate her up. Are you satisfied now?”

The beautiful face under Leng Yuewu’s veil turned pale, and her eyes became panicked and angry. She raised her sword and stabbed toward Lei Qing’s chest, “Lei Qing, you bastard, I’m going to kill you.”

Lei Qing felt a chill, secretly screaming in alarm that she was actually attacking. He hurriedly dodged to the side and circled behind a low table, glaring angrily, “Leng Yuewu, are you really stabbing?”

“You bullied me, and you even bullied Shanshan.” Leng Yuewu said furiously, “Killing you with one sword will end everything.”

Lei Qing broke out in a cold sweat and cursed angrily, “I bullied you? Can you stop deceiving yourself? Your Holy Hall is grand, while I am just a small fry trying to make a living with my brothers. Even if someone is bullying someone, it’s you bullying me. Forget it, being ordered around by a woman all day, there’s no point in living. If you want to kill me, go ahead. Stab right through my heart, as you wish, and end it all.”

Actually, Lei Qing also knew that if Leng Yuewu really wanted to kill him, how could she allow him to jump around and run around the table? With her power as a Holy Rank, killing him would be like him killing a Black Iron-rank, purely a matter of one move.

Leng Yuewu shouted about killing, but her sword kept wavering back and forth, refusing to stab Lei Qing. However, her sorrowful, angry, and panicked eyes made Lei Qing’s heart soften slightly, and he felt a bit distressed.

He stopped being angry at her, slowly stood still, his expression turned serious, and he sighed lightly, “Alright, alright, Wu’er, stop waving that sword around. To tell you the truth, I didn’t bully Shanshan.”

“Then, then why was she crying so sadly, and kept scolding you?” The nervousness in Leng Yuewu’s eyes relaxed a little, and she believed most of Lei Qing’s words. Actually, she also knew that even if Lei Qing really did something to Yu Shanshan, she really couldn’t bring herself to be cruel to him.

“Sigh, your temper is just too impulsive.” Lei Qing sighed lightly as he approached, pushed her sword aside, and reached out to grab her shoulder.

Leng Yuewu was slightly stunned. She wanted to dodge but ultimately let him grasp her fragrant shoulder, and she couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

“In the future, don’t be so indiscriminate, pointing your sword at your man the moment you arrive.” Lei Qing spoke gently and softly, pulling her lightly into his embrace, “You are my woman, be good.”

The tender words made Leng Yuewu’s eyes become a little blurry, and her heart beat faster. But some hurdles in her heart made her struggle slightly as she scolded in a low voice, “Who, who is your woman?”

“Be good, don’t throw a tantrum.” Lei Qing looked deeply into her eyes and said softly, “I know you are very conflicted in your heart. You want to forget me, but you can’t bear to.”

“Who, who can’t bear to part with you.” Leng Yuewu dodged Lei Qing’s increasingly burning gaze.

“Alright, Wu’er, let’s not deceive ourselves anymore.” Lei Qing’s voice was somewhat low and hoarse, with a hint of magnetism, “Some coincidences, some experiences, some encounters have made us become very important people to each other. It is so for you, and it is so for me. Wu’er, just as you think of me all the time and cannot forget me, I also cannot wipe you from my heart.”

The gentle love words gradually softened Leng Yuewu’s eyes. Her strength to struggle became weaker and weaker, and she half-resistingly let Lei Qing pull her into his embrace.

This was different from usual; somehow, a warm and comfortable feeling arose spontaneously. It allowed her restless and uneasy heart to gradually settle down.

“Since we can’t escape, let’s solve it together.” Lei Qing whispered softly, “Your heart has been very chaotic lately. This will make you go further and further astray on the path of cultivation. It hurts me to see it.” Lightly, he kissed his lips onto her forehead.

That gentle kiss was like a thin electric current, spreading from her forehead to her whole body. It made her feel weightless, as if she were falling into the clouds. In her entire life, this was the first time she had tasted such a feeling.

Although she had many experiences with Lei Qing, such light tenderness was a first. Bit by bit, her heart, which had been restless lately, gradually calmed down. This feeling made her very comfortable and enjoyable.

“Since we cannot resist some things, let us accept them calmly.” Lei Qing seemed to be casting a spell on her as he whispered, “Think about it carefully, if it weren’t for the will of heaven, how could the two of us have met? The world is huge, yet I, for no good reason, insisted on walking through that mountain range. And you, chasing Situ Nan, also arrived at the Heavenly Ridge Mountain Range.”

“The will of heaven?” Leng Yuewu was not a fool; in fact, she had excellent talent and was very intelligent. It was just that in her life, she had never had any physical or even emotional entanglements with any man. Her heart was incredibly conflicted, and she didn’t know how to handle it. This was what made her heart messy and made her lose her composure.

“Yes, it is definitely the will of heaven. Think carefully about what happened that day; it was too much of a coincidence. It is the miraculous work of the heavens.” Lei Qing was not an ignorant novice like Leng Yuewu; he knew very well how lethal concepts like the will of heaven and fate were to women. This would give them a strong spiritual comfort to accept this relationship with peace of mind.

“But why does the will of heaven want to, want to put us…” Leng Yuewu’s delicate body had already relaxed a lot and softened slightly. It was just that she still couldn’t let go of all the resistance and attachment in her heart.

“It must be that the heavens saw that our Wu’er is both beautiful and capable. They felt it would be too much of a pity to let you spend your life alone.” Lei Qing chuckled and continued to instill some spiritual reliance in her, “So, they sent me, a majestic and mighty man, to let you experience scenery you have never experienced in this life. Wu’er, a person’s life must experience family affection, friendship, and love to be considered complete. Otherwise, it is like the bright moon in the sky; if it lacks a corner, it is not perfect. Don’t struggle and conflict anymore; go with the will of heaven and enjoy this relationship.”

“But, I always feel, feel like I’m sorry…” Leng Yuewu leaned in Lei Qing’s arms, trembling slightly, “I’m so afraid Shanshan will find out.”

“The will of heaven cannot be defied. Besides, we are a man and a woman, unmarried. What is wrong with loving each other openly and honestly?” Lei Qing gently stroked her black hair, feeling a sense of unreality in his heart, as if he were dreaming.

Think about it, a powerful figure who is famous throughout the Pan-Continent, whose stomp makes the wind and clouds change color. A character with countless admirers, like a fairy floating above the nine heavens. At this moment, she was like a girl ignorant of love, leaning in his arms, letting him pick her.

This unreal and somewhat absurd feeling also made Lei Qing’s heart palpitate. He had to admit that he also had vanity. The goddess that countless men longed for in their hearts and couldn’t get even in their wildest imaginations had finally become his woman. This feeling also gave Lei Qing an immense sense of satisfaction in his male vanity while producing a sense of unreality.

However, this was also a Heavenly Thunder that could explode at any time. If not handled well, it would blow Leng Yuewu and himself to pieces together.

“Lei Qing, thank you.” Leng Yuewu relaxed a lot and said softly, “You made my heart feel much better.” Her eyes looked at Lei Qing differently now. There was less coldness and more warmth.

“The wound in your heart has healed a lot.” Lei Qing chuckled and grasped her slightly cold, slender, jade-like hand, “But my heart is still bleeding. It’s your turn to soothe my wounded heart.”

“Your heart is wounded?” Leng Yuewu was slightly puzzled.

“Of course. I saved you with good intentions, yet you tried to kill me several times, pointing a sword at my neck every time.” Lei Qing said with a miserable look on his face, “Anyone else would have been scared to death by you, right? It’s not easy for me to have survived strongly until now.”

Leng Yuewu’s face showed some embarrassment. However, for her, killing someone with a sword was easy. But coaxing and comforting someone was something she had never even thought of doing in her life, let alone done. After opening her mouth a few times, she slowly shook her head and said, “But I don’t know how.”

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how, just do this…” Lei Qing whispered a few words in her ear, a wicked smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

“You…” Leng Yuewu was instantly so ashamed that her ears burned, and her delicate body trembled as she scolded lightly, “You, you are bullying me again? How can you make me do, do such a thing?”
